Cowardly Stepmother Dressed As the Hero

v2 Chapter 97



Cannes City, Bei’an Palace.

Qi An held Yu Jing’s newly developed binoculars in front of him and looked westward.

Qi Ran jumped to the side anxiously: “Second brother! Show me too! Show me! Show me!”

“Don’t be noisy!” Qi An ignored him and only gave a warning.

Little Fatty stopped, pouted and asked, “Second brother, what did you see?”

Cao Mi saw the serious faces of the two, so he also walked over to join in the fun.

After listening to Qi An’s silence for a while, he said solemnly: “On the plum tree outside my father’s study, there is really another bird’s nest, on the top of it!”

“Ah?” Qi Ran didn’t realize that the “danger” was approaching, and asked, “Why didn’t we find it last time?”

Cao Mi listened for a while, sighed amusedly, stretched out his hand, and took the telescope back.

Only then did the twins realize that Cao Mi was coming, turned around angrily, and called out “mother”.

“When was the last time?” Cao Mi reckoned with them, “Did you drag Qi Liu with you to climb a tree again?”

Qi An and Qi Ran played the twins’ tacit understanding at this time, and shook their heads from left to right.

“Huh? No?” Cao Mi frowned in apparent disbelief.

Qi An continued to shake his head, but Qi Ran suddenly said, “It wasn’t for Qi Liu, it was for Tianquan and Tianxuan to take us there!”

When Cao Mi heard the words, before he could speak, Qi An glared at his silly brother.

“Okay, Qi Liu won’t accompany you to make a fool of yourself, so you will go to Qi Rui’s side?” Cao Mi turned around and scolded: “It seems that the homework left by Master Lin is still too easy, so I have to ask him to take care of him. Just keep you in check.”

“Mother!” The twins were no longer dependent, and rushed up to grab the corner of her skirt and act like a spoiled child.

Cao Mi shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: “Okay, don’t mess around.”

She raised the telescope in her hand: “This thing needs to be debugged on the mirror side. I’m just here to get it back.”

Saying that, she squatted down and told the twins: “By the way, the telescope and the microscope inside are the two most important things in the palace today. You can’t say it at will, you know?”

Qi An is not worried about her, this child looks small and may have more hearts than her.

But suddenly it was different, this little fat pier was on top, and he could say anything.

But seeing Cao Mi’s warning so solemnly, the two still nodded and solemnly agreed: “Okay.”

Cao Mi nodded and led them into the house.

Inside the house, Qi Rui was standing on a chair, leaning over to look at the rather advanced microscope.

Hu Shenyi stood beside him: “How is it, see it!”

Qi Rui looked away and nodded.

But then, he was a little strange: “But these things… don’t look like ‘little bugs’. How do they look like this?”

Hu Shenyi stroked his beard: “I don’t even know this old man!

“But they are indeed alive! Did you see one in the upper left corner, with a black spot stuck to the outer edge?”

He widened his eyes and said in surprise, “It looks like he’s eating!”

Hearing this, Qi Rui put his eyes close again, and then said, “Yes! It is indeed!”

Cao Mi, who was bringing the twins in, heard the words and smiled.

She said: “With this in the future, Hu Shenyi can study these ‘little bugs’ carefully.”

Doctor Hu hurriedly bowed to her.

The more experiments on culturing bacteria were conducted, the more respect Hu Shenyi showed to Cao Mi. Now, the microscope has been developed as Cao Mi said, and Hu Shenyi has also seen the appearance of cell bacteria with his own eyes. At this moment, Cao Mi is almost regarded as a saint.

He said: “The princess is really a god, all of this has come true as you expected!”

Cao Mi himself also stood on the shoulders of giants, so he knew more than people of this era.

At this time, I was a little embarrassed to hear the praise of Hu Shenyi.

But Hu Shenyi didn’t notice it, and he asked excitedly: “It’s just that now that I’ve seen the appearance of these things, it’s not appropriate to call them ‘little bugs’.

“Has the princess re-named them?”

Cao Mi snorted and said, “We haven’t figured out the types of these ‘little bugs’ yet, so I don’t want to name them randomly.

“It’s better to wait until Hu Shenyi has thoroughly studied it before making a decision.”

Shenyi Hu thought about it for a while, and nodded in agreement.

A few people chatted for a while, Hu Shenyi called two disciples and took the microscope away carefully, while Cao Mi talked to Yu Jing about the optimization of the telescope.

“…The magnification can still be improved. Also, optimize the middle connection part and make it movable, so that no matter how wide the eye distance is, people can adjust the length themselves.”

While listening, Yu Jing wrote down Cao Mi’s instructions in his heart.

After Cao Mi finished speaking, he praised: “It’s only been one month since the last time, and I’m very surprised to see such results now.

“Now that the telescope can be used, I will send someone to send this one to the prince. When the new one is developed, you can make a few more.”

Yu Jing nodded: “Yes.”

“Is the development going well now?” Cao Mi thought for a while, and then asked, “If you need anything, just tell me.”

Yu Jing waved his hand quickly: “The princess doesn’t know, but now the glass refining process has been improved, not only has the output increased, but the cost has been much lower than before.

“We have an endless supply of lenses that we can grind, and there is absolutely nothing missing.”

“That’s good.” Cao Mi nodded in satisfaction.

After Yu Jing and the others came, Cao Mi also asked to continue to improve the glass technology.

Because of this, it cost a lot of the funds that the palace provided in the past.

But as things stand today, all previous investment is worthwhile.

Thinking of this, she let out a light breath and said, “I hope these things are delivered in time, so that they can really help the prince.”

Yu Jing nodded beside him and said firmly, “Don’t worry, Princess, it’s definitely possible.”

Cao Mi didn’t know that what she should be worried about now was not Qi You, who had successfully won the city of Junrong, but herself and her three children.

In the capital city hundreds of miles away from Liaozhou.

After more than half a month of debate in the courthouse, the matter of Liaozhou sending troops has been settled.

Because there was a successful example of “capturing Junrong City” first, and the various “trophies” attached to Qi You’s memorabilia, the old emperor’s heart was still biased, and he stood on the side of King Bei’an.

As Qi You expected, the imperial decree agreeing to send troops has been drawn up, and he is waiting for the **** to send a letter to Changling.

But that doesn’t mean things are settled.

King Bei’an’s nemesis, the Minister of War, and the Prime Minister who had interests in Liaozhou, searched for a day, and had a secret chat with the emperor in the imperial study for a long time, but after they came out, nothing happened.

Qi Yi and Qi Qi were staring nervously at this place, but this time it was a little strange.

But everything was calm, and even if they had doubts, they couldn’t find anything unusual, so they could only focus on other business affairs for the time being.

Just at the inconspicuous place they missed, an order was sent to a small official in the suburbs of Beijing who had just arrived and no one would notice.

“…I’ll give you the order.” Ji You took a deep breath and took the document in Zou Gou’s hand.

Zou Gou smiled directly: “Then in the next two or three months, there will be Lord Lao Ji.”

Ji You was stunned when he heard the words, and quickly waved his hand and said, “I don’t dare, I don’t have the talent, so I ask Master Zou to take more care of me.”

“Hey, it’s easy to talk, easy to talk about.” Zou Gou took him by the shoulders, “Actually, like Mr. Ji, someone who first came to the capital had this chance, and Zou met you in his first half of his life. One!

“Master Ji must take advantage of this opportunity.”

Ji You nodded excitedly: “Xiaguan must do his best.”

After a pause, he asked: “I don’t know what to do when going north to Liaozhou this time?

“The document said that I should lead the way for the adults and cooperate with all the actions of the adults, what should I do?”

As the two talked, they walked to the courtyard where Ji You was staying.

Zou Gou backed away and said to Ji You: “Master Ji You was born in Liaozhou, this task is very important, and I still need to rely on you, so I will not hide it from you.

“This time, we’re going to Cannes.

“The King of Bei’an was demoted to Liaozhou two years ago and settled in Kangcheng. Lord Ji should have heard of it.”

“Huh?” Ji You was a little surprised, “Did… was King Bei’an demoted back then?”

Zou Gou smiled: “Hey, he was driven from the rich Bei’an to the broken part of Liaozhou, isn’t he demoted?”

Ji You frowned and nodded with a complicated expression.

“In the previous court, the matter about the dispatch of troops from Liaozhou has been decided.” Zou Gou continued: “The King of Bei’an is about to lead his troops out of the fortress. This is a big event!”

“Yes!” Ji You’s eyes lit up, “It’s been a long time since I refused to let the five cities fall into the hands of the Rong people. It is my great fortune that the prince can lead the army to recover.”

Hearing him say this, Zou Gou twitched the corners of his mouth with a half-smiley smile: “Master Ji is still young, this is full of blood, it’s really enviable.”

Ji You quickly restrained his demeanor and asked again, “So… we are going to Cannes City, and it has something to do with the Bei’an Palace?”

Zou Gou nodded: “Master Ji, think about it, the King of Bei’an is fighting outside, leaving the princess and the three young sons in the mansion, unattended, how can this be good?

“The emperor is sympathetic to the fact that it is not easy for the princess to raise the three young sons alone. This time, let us go over and take the princess and the three young sons to the capital to take care of them.”

When Ji You heard the words, he felt a huge shock in his heart, and was almost stunned on the spot.

But this time, he held his breath, then lowered his head to hide his expression, and replied lightly: “So it is. The emperor is merciful, and this is for the sake of King Bei’an.”

Zou Gou nodded.

He didn’t notice Ji You’s abnormality, he just patted his shoulder: “That’s why I said Mr. Ji is lucky!

“The above is looking for someone who is familiar with Liaozhou, hey! The matter just fell on Mr. Ji’s head.

“As long as the matter is done, Master Ji can show his face in front of the emperor and leave his name. In the future, wouldn’t it be easy to get promoted, so don’t worry anymore?”

Ji You laughed in agreement, then bowed and saluted, “I still have to rely on Master Zou for promotion.”

“Good to say! Good to say!” Zou Gou raised his head and said proudly.

After serving Zou Gou and the group of people who came to give orders with good wine and good food, Ji You was lying on the bed at night.

Finally, he couldn’t help it, got up and put on his clothes, and came to his servant’s room.

“Little son, it’s so late? Why are you here?” the servant asked strangely.

“Uncle Ji, when you leave tomorrow, go home and tell me that you are going back!” Ji You said in a hurry.

The servant was stunned for a moment: “The villain knows! We just had dinner, didn’t you and Master Zou talk about it? I want the villain to bring someone back to Liaozhou to make arrangements.”

Ji You shook his head: “It’s not about this.”

He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, “After you get home, find someone to do something for me at Sifang Bookstore!”

“…”

The field mouse stared at the fruit in the field, and the night pooch fanned his wings in the dark. When the sky was not at its darkest, people’s hearts were already floating.

The author has something to say: today is the last day of March, so happy!

April is coming, I hope everyone can be healthy and happy in the spring season!
